It's not what you know but who you know that matters...and, indeed, how well you know them. The show is a bit like ‘Mr and Mrs’, except that it's not played by husbands and wives. Instead, panellists can pick anyone they like: dad, cousin, best friend, mother-in-law. What is Bridget Christie's worst fear? Or Ainsley Harriott's worst habit? Or Seann Walsh's worst gig? All these burning questions, and more, will be answered in this BBC comedy panel show hosted by Miles Jupp, where panellists are tested on how well they know their nearest and dearest.

A lovely send-off to the much-missed Jeremy Hardy
I am an unashamed ISIHAC superfan and so I was always going to give this a good review. On several occasions I found myself crying with both laughter and sadness at some fantastic, and now poignant lines. A favourite moment has to be Jeremy singing "Thank You For the Music" to the tune of "You Fill Up My Senses".
"'Cos everyone listens when I start to sing". We certainly do.
A fantastic compilation of shows for any fan of ISIHAC and/or Jeremy Hardy.

ISIHAC is to Radio4, as Ronseal is to fences!
A beloved show, that would almost certainly, be shelved, if the BBC have to concentrate revenue, on big budget, commercially driven content: ISIHAC, is one of the last of its kind. A hidden treasure, that too few people encounter.
Been a fan for years, & lucky enough to see some recordings.
From his rapport with Graeme Garden, & Barry Cryer, snubbing TB-T, & continuation of insulting Colin Sell; Casting Jack Dee, as the chair, is inspired.
Saddened by the loss of Tim Brooke-Taylor.

A lovely sendoff to Jeremy Hardy
With the untimely death of Jeremy Hardy, Jeremy is featured on all the episodes for Volume 18. I've been listening to this show for 40yrs and it's always a 5-star listen. This volume is no different, although it is tinged with some sadness. This was a lovely tribute and sendoff to a talented comic. Thanks for all the laughs, Jeremy...just not the singing though. :-D
